I was kind of hoping it would do the same for others leading up to Christmas. That was the original purpose. I of course don't mind any criticism. Just sayin'.

I still like my #1 > Santa Baby. Maybe over my #2 and definitely over my #3.

So I'd probably would have had Santa Baby at #3 at the lowest, #2 at the highest.

Yeah...thats basically what people have said as well.

Just odd that I've had such good experiences with it, yet it seems that the vast majority of people hate it. I'm now nervous of my return flight, lol.

Do what you've gotta do - it's your list, so put it where you think it belongs rather than omitting it due to an obvious moment of forgetfulness.

ClarkNasty · 12-22-2011, 10:28 PM

I mean, its not gonna crash or anything.

It'll be corrected.

FWIW, I still not crazy about O Holy Night. The Boccelli version is awesome, but I feel like that has a lot to do with Boccelli being GOAT level.

Needle, did you even contemplate throwing 'Rockin Around The Christmas Tree' on your list, or is it too cheesy? It would be in my top 4-7 somewhere. One of those holiday songs that can put you in a great mood.

I'd like to hear an Action Bronson christmas album lols

It's my #6.

Yeah...they do charge for everything but they do allow it to be a very cheap way to travel which is great for me. I don't really have much to complain about on a flight that's just over an hour long.

But I've never had any problems with them, everyone seems friendly and does a very ++ job when checking you in when checking bags, ect.

Just curious because of all the bad I hear and how much I enjoy flying it. Though...I despise Newark Airport so I just get happy that I can spend a night in Atlantic City and fly out of a small airport.

depends how tall you are... anything over 5'8" and you feel like a sardine crushed into a can. 6'3" dudes might as well put their knees up over their chin to fit.

$9 fare club is a good deal for those that travel one of their routes a bit.

Pro tip: If you are that tall, you might as well fly Spirit and pay for the upgrade seats... still will be cheaper than other airlines (especially when you get a free carry one when you upgrade and our in their club).

As for me... my shoulders are too wide to ever fit comfortably without being in the front.

I hate that song. To be fair, I've not really liked most of Needle's list though.

I must of missed the video. But we had it in the same range in a top 10.

I think I know you're #1..

**Karak** · 12-23-2011, 02:00 AM

kyleb · 12-23-2011, 03:10 AM

**Karak** · 12-23-2011, 03:13 AM

4 or 5

kidcolin · 12-23-2011, 03:14 AM

I vehemently disagree with clark. it's fine, but not a #1 at all. Prob not in my top 5 or even 10.

Not sure my ordering here, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but some top ones for me:

Sleigh Ride - Johnny Mathis
Most Wonderful Time of the Year - Andy William (though this might finally be the year car ads have killed it)
Christmas Wrapping - The Waitresses
Jingle Bell Rock - Bobby Helms
All I want for Christmas is You - Mariah

Plus most of Bing's stuff. Growing up, Mathis's Sleigh Ride was always my favorite.

"I'll be home for christmas" is a pretty GOAT radio play, while someone is pulling your car out of a ditch in the middle of vermont around midnight on christmas eve.
